(Y/n)'s POV

A surge of ice covered half the ship and Kurogiri fell to his side in a quick attempt to dodge the attack. I knew the ice meant one thing-- Todoroki. I didn't hesitate and took the opportunity to catch Kurogiri off guard. I managed to slice his jacket open in the back and even cut into his skin a bit before he noticed and teleported further away. I grunted in irritation and fell back to where Katsuki was holding Tomura at bay.

"Kurogiri teleported just out of my line of vision," I informed Katsuki, lining up behind him so no one one try and sneak up on him.

"Tch, that's bothersome. We'll just have to be aware of our surrounding and focus on Tomura for now," Katsuki replied, not taking his eye off the evidently shocked Tomura.

"This misty fellow the one you're looking for?" A voice called from the sky. I looked up and saw I red-winged man that I recognized from one of our previous fights with the League. His red feathers were carrying Kurogiri up into the air and it seemed Kurogiri was too discombobulated to teleport away. Once Kurogiri got a grasp on what was happening, he teleported away, only to instantly be met with the merciless flames of Todoroki.

"Don't worry about this one, (L/n). Hawks and I will take care of him," Todoroki said, raising himself in ice water so I could see him. It was hard to keep myself from getting emotional. If someone had told me a year or so ago that there would be this many people ready to fight by my side, I wouldn't have believed them. All my life, my own passions and opinions were shut down and replaced with my father's beliefs. Sir Tokoyami and Momo were the only people who seemed to listen to me over my father. Sure, I believed that if I were in danger that my father would send out soldiers to rescue me (although now I know that wouldn't necessarily be true), but I knew that no soldiers would ever follow my orders or wishes. Now it was different. All of these people were here because they wanted to help me-- they wanted to fight with me. It felt weird to think, but being kidnapped was the best thing that had ever happened to me. And if having all of the Justicia, the Bakuhatsu, Todoroki, and this Hawks guy here to help, there Sir Tokoyami was flying in with his quirk whilst carrying Momo.

"Lady (L/n)! Lookout!" Tokoyami shouted as he prepared for landing. I noticed someone running at me from the side and quickly dodged his attack. Twice had come up from his post in the brig in order to assist Tomura. He managed to separate me from Katsuki and was using his doubles to surround me. A canon blast suddenly shot out my hearing and took out several of Twice's replicas. Momo was standing next to the canon and Tokoyami was advancing towards Twice. 

"Momo! Sir Tokoyami! You're here?!" I exclaimed, dueling with one of the images of Twice.

"You've got your pirate captain friend to thank for that," Momo smiled as she made a sword with her quirk and joined the fight.

"We had been in hiding, but Captain Bakugo was able to get in contact with Hawks who found us and informed us that you were in trouble. You do enjoy worrying me, don't you, Miss?" Tokoyami explained as him and his quirk companion, Dark Shadow, were demolishing Twice.

"I'm so glad you all are alright-- I've been so worried," I admitted.

"You should have more faith in us! We're a tough duo, so let us help you out here. We'll take on this wrongdoer and keep him out of your way," Momo said as she wiped out another double with a massive axe.

"Are you sure?" I checked, surprised that Momo seemed so well-trained.

"Yes, now go!" Tokoyami shouted as he cleared a path for me back towards Katsuki and Tomura. I seized the opportunity and started making my way back, but I was stopped dead in my tracks by my so-called "attendant" on board.
